Hej Johan! I’ll take this in swenglish ;). I have the Big City comp. Long time since I gave it a spin. Can’t remember that I liked it that much. I’ll see if I’ll post it later on. Hälsa Motala från Linköping.

Hi the flakes.
I don’t know if it was you that I talked to on “helgon” so I’ll take it again. The reason I wanna hear it because I used to work with one of the guys from the betrayd (who I belive is on there?). He had a wok restaurant here in motala called Wok n’ roll. really nice guy with all the right attitude. So we made noodles and chopped weggies and listen to punkrock… Well he played me some of the later betrayed stuff wich is more Rock n’ roll… We’ll he told me the earlier stuff was more hardcore so I’m curious…

No problem… It turned out that you’re not the only one who wasn’t alert. I search my old computer and found some mp3:s with the betrayed. And I remember that I actually borrowed his old real 2 real tape (the original recordings for the songs on that comp, and the other one they where on) and recorded it to mp3. The sound wasnt to good and on the first track I only got one chanel so you can’t hear the guitar.
But it’s pretty good :)

Being that this is an old post, no one will probabl;y ever read this, but the No Core cassette and 7″ we two completely seperate releases. The 7″ was not a re-release of the cassette, it was a different comp with different tracks.

hey, didn´t listen to this comp yet, but i´ve heard most bands on the “no core” comp, and they are soo fucking great! especially no labels, where reed and woody from coc used to play! no rock stars are also great – a bit more of a uk punk influence.. great raw angry hc! thanks for the great site! especially for brulbajz, and die kreuzen 7inches – the first one is a pleasant surprise from a band i never heard of, and kreuzen are just great! much better than on master tape vol. 1! thanks again, man!

This E.P. is not a re-release of the “No Core” cassette in any way, shape or form. I used to have both and there is no overlap, as far as tracks go. This EP came out a year or two later and can more properly be considered a follow-up to the cassette.

anybody has listened more ‘bloodmobile’ songs over that compilation. i heard them maybe 15 or more:) years ago on old tape and then it was my fave songs. If anybody has something please describe me. thanks

Way too late I know , BUTT:
BLOODMOBILE is the real deal to me ,STILLBORN CHRISTIANS not too far away from them.
The “NO CORE” cassette -compilation is definitely not the same as this compilation 7″ as BLOODMOBILE misses on the cassette, for example.
ANOTHER THING THAT MAKES ME SCRATCHIN MY HEAD :
is the guy calling himself “VERSION SOUND” here not the one Bob Moore who released the “Cows and Beer” by DIE KREUZEN/AOF 7″s and some other great compilation-cassettes?
If its him,I mean if its you Bob, you have done such a great job in the early 1980s- wow!!!
The playlist of his compilation-cassettes read like the VALHALLA OF U.S. HardCore-Punk…
I try to search for a site where you write something about your activities back then (if such a thing exists).HELP!

I read somewhere that Stillborn Christians recorded many other songs during the sessions for this comp, but I could find only this: http://youtu.be/82sxNFlntHQ Fuck, they were so great and original! A bit in the vein of early Saccharine Trust, but much more in the frame of raw, fast HC. I wish I could hear the complete “Why Are We Here” sessions…
